conference with the President and Dean

SWIMMING MEET
PRESIDENT THOMAS SPEAKS ON
SHELLEY
- In Chapel last Friday morning Presi-
dent Thomas spoke on Shelley She said
that although Shelley was not a world
poet, because his wonderful lyric quality
made his work almost impossible to
translate, yet among the poi tfl Of the Eng-
lish language she would place him in
greatness next after Shakespeare. Presi-
dent Thomas described Shelley as the
scholar, the poet of freedom, of dsmoc-
of liberty: in the broadest eonse the
poet of humanity. She considered that
one of the greatest misfortunes that ever
befell ihe world was the early death of
Shelley. President Thomas closed by ad-
Vising every one to read Shelly especially
